    1, Stack of slabs
    2, more slabs
    3, one end of table
    4, cleaned up ready for resin
    5, second end
    6, together taped up for resin fill
    7, sanded back
    8, seating idea
    9, getting there. top joined with benchtop clamps, dowels and PVA, all coach bolted to the steel frame, on wheels now for ease of movement (bloody heavy)
    A fair bit more work on the lower section now the top is finished, will post up some more pics as the project proceeds.

    nice, nah, great table top

    but ...

    was just wondering to myself, if the bench is curved like that then the people sitting on each end are a little excluded from conversation - as they cannot eyeball each other without doing it behind the backs of those in the middle ( I hope you see what I mean?)

    I see what you are saying SDM and agree! but with the curved seating it may just work and on the flip side I will learn the best vantage spot on card nights its going to be for my patio
